The California Stalking Law
Penal Code Section 646.9 has greatly evolved over the past fourteen years and has become more effective in defining and addressing this increasingly common crime. California now has one of the strongest stalking laws in the country. No Longer should victims of stalking be turned away by law enforcement and told, "come back when he actually hurts you." From 1991 through 1993, stalking was a misdemeanor punishable by only one year in county jail when no restraining order was in place. Under the current law, a first-time stalker can be sentenced to a felony charge and sentenced to State Prison for up to three years. If a court or restraining order is in effect, the stalker can be sentenced up to four years in prison or if he has previously been convicted of felony stalking or other related crimes, he could face up to five years in prison.
Michael has put this woman and her entire family in harms way. As crazy as he seems to be, it would only take one even crazier shareholder to harm this woman.
